[W126 Coupe] Spark plugs and wires

[Rusty Cullens]

Well, I think anything I say, Jono Dude is going to rebut. I guess that
is what I get for getting a guy started in this business and being a
very supportive employer. Oh well, live & learn.

Well, Bosch plugs Used to be the best, however Bosch has stopped making
the correct NON-resistor plug for our cars.  The new plugs instead of
being a W9DC or DC0 are now WR9DC etc, etc.. I've already pulled quite a
few R plugs out of 117/116 engines that were not running right.  

I beleive the best plug on the market is the Beru, however they are a
pita to get your hands on...that being the case NGK makes a very good
plus in the correct heat range and non-resistor copper electrode.  The
W9DC crosses to a BP5ES in NGk.  There is also a champion that Mercedes
approves but I'm not such a big fan of their plugs.
